The best high-paying freelance gigs of the week: April 6, 2020
Hey, No-fluffers! No matter how the world keeps saying that jobs are going away, remember that editors, businesses and publications still want our pitches. Don’t give up! Quality content is always needed, even during a pandemic.
Here’s this weeks list of best paying gigs to help you find some new places to write for. These gigs pay at least $50 an article, offer a full-time salary, or pay more than $20 an hour. They are also all remote (also known as virtual jobs or work-from-home jobs). Be sure to check back each week for a new list.
Note: I don’t know anything about these positions other than what I post. I weed out the seedy looking ones, but it is your job to be diligent when applying. Also, please don’t message me with questions about the postings. If a link doesn’t work the posting has probably been taken down because the gig has been filled. If you have a gig for freelance writers that pays at least $50 a peice or over $20 an hour, please contact me and I will include your gig in next week’s post.
